Staying here was a great decision. I arrived at the apartment and was welcomed by Taviras, his mother and brother, who had come to help prepare the apartment for my stay. I was the first Airbnb guest at this brand new apartment, and I was really impressed with the modern and clean setup.

Taviras was very helpful in showing me the facilities in the building, and giving me advice on the area. He was also very responsive to my queries or questions during my stay which included advice about Bangkok in general.

I found the area pretty quiet and peaceful. There is a convenience store a few minutes walk down the road, but for larger grocery shops I went into one of the malls via the BTS skytrain (there is also a supermarket closer, on the main road, but I didn't visit that as I typically combined my trips into town with my grocery shopping).

I used Uber which is very good value and typically cost about 50-75 baht one way to Phra Khanong BTS station (I found it was best to avoid evening rush hour times from about 4-7pm). A tip if you're arriving to the building by car - ask them to drive into the gate (give a toot to the security guy to open in as you arrive), so they can drop you right by the lift (elevator) and this also means they can drive around the carpark and exit easily (rather than having to turn around in the street).

The security of the building is excellent with security on site apparently 24/7. The building is also equipped with security cameras in the hallways and security swipe card access in the lift (elevator). There is also a building administration office on the same floor as the gym & pool which seems to have staff during the workday which was comforting to know in case of emergency.

I didn't use the gym but it's filled with all manner of modern gym contraptions. The pool is lovely, salt-water apparently, and a great facility to cool down on a hot day.

The air conditioning in the apartment is excellent, and there are two units - one in the lounge area, and one in the bedroom. There is a small place to dry clothes on the balcony. While there are no clothes washing facilities in the building, ask for local laundromats in the area if you need them.

I would recommend this place to a friend for sure. In fact, I wanted to extend my stay here but was too late as someone else had booked already.

Thank you to Taviras for a great place to stay :)
